This may not mean much to anyone else but back when Tennis had personalities, I remember a Wimbledon QF where Jimmy Connors (a much loved sportsman not just for being a great player but a bit of a one-line joker with it on the court) at age 34 and carrying an injury was down 2 sets and 4-1 in the 3rd, almost certainly down and out. Connors pulls it back to 4-4 and goes on to win the set 7-5. But this was no ordinary comeback. This was an old stalwart - an ageing dark knight Batman of the tennis world who in the 4th set gets battered again, down 3-0 in the set, being written off again, then fighting back to win the set 6-4. At this point every fcker watching including me is on an adrenalin rush. There was no plain sailing in the 5th either, and it was to and fro all the way with serves being broken until he finally won the match and the genuine happiness I felt for this cheeky chappy from America I still remember to this day. There have been plenty of nail-biting 5 setters before and since but that one still remains the best for me.
Suck you Fcky! See I feel sorry for you that you've never experienced tennis with proper characters. Like snooker. Too many robotic boring ****s in the game now.
Rubbish mate rather watch paint dry, no amount if character could change the actual game which is boring to watch. Some things just aint spectator sports. Golf Snooker Tennis Darts Cricket Borrrinnnnggg
Whats exciting about one **** hitting a ball to another **** for 2 hrs? Or two fat ****s throwing darts and drinking pints? Or some posh **** hitting a tiny ball you cant see and walking about all day? **** mate
